14 for 98 yards

[vmax]

14 penalties!

On a defense that does not have much wiggle room, with plenty of back end weaknesses....you just don't do this.

 

 

 

On offense, an illegal use of hands (to the face) penalty on Eugene Monroe wiped out an 11-yard gain in the red zone that would have put the Ravens at the Chargers' 5. They instead were backed up and settled for one of four field goals.

The majority of the penalties came on defense, however. Outside linebacker Elvis Dumervil was flagged three times for lining up in the neutral zone, once negating his own sack. Safety Matt Elam was flagged for holding twice. Outside linebacker Pernell McPhee gave up a free first down by jumping offsides.

Outside linebacker Terrell Suggs was called for hands to the face, helping the Chargers get in field-goal range before the end of the first half. A holding call on linebacker Daryl Smith on San Diego's next-to-last drive kept the defense on the field after what looked to be a third-down incompletion. The Chargers scored a touchdown on the next play. http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/John-Harbaugh-Not-Happy-With-Ravens-Penalties/080b6b28-f2f3-4559-ad1c-026de4c18a50

Remember when the Ravens did it to Sea down by 24?

For a while it seemed like both team's plans were to throw it deep and hope for a call.

I hate that about the rule changes.

Yep, I was at that game. The place emptied and some tried to get back in, some did, most did not. Either way, that place was rockin with only half at best, the stadium filled... great game.

So was I. It was so empty. I was sitting in sec 124.
